C45 Completely disfigured (1/2)

Lu Jinfeng's face darkened, and only replied with a light ”En”, his voice sounded extremely unhappy.

Chen Mu Mu poked him, ”What's wrong? Do you feel sorry for such a good relative?”

She did not forget that when she said she wanted to go to Li Nian's house to take back the items, she said that she was going to go to Li Nian's house.

Lu Jinfeng shook his head. ”No, I'm just sad for my mother.”

”The customs here are all poured water by your married daughter. Because the water was poured out, it has nothing to do with them. That's why they brazenly bullied you and your mother. These relatives, there's nothing to stay for.” Chen Mu didn't think so. Perhaps it was because she grew up in a different environment. She didn't care too much about family. ”If they really cared about your mother, your little nephew, they wouldn't be able to do such a thing.”

Others would help their relatives if they were to fall into a difficult situation, but and the Madam Lee would definitely help them if they were to fall, so that they could obtain some benefits.

Such a relative was even worse than a passerby. ”At least, passersby would be willing to lend a hand when they see a passerby fall.”

Lu Jinfeng was silent for a bit, then he faintly said: ”How is it possible that we don't know what you have just said, it's just that sometimes it's impossible to see through the rumors.”

The two of them did not purposely lower their voices so that the people beside them could hear them. Using the not-so-bright starlight, Chen Mu Mu Mu noted the ugly face of Madam Lee and the corner of her mouth twitched, pretending that she did not see anything.

Today, he had to bring up the viciousness of the Madam Lee!

She pretended not to understand as she said, ”Lu Jinfeng, I remember you saying that you and Mother have been ill for so many years and that no one has helped them. She paused for a second, a crafty look flashing past her eyes, ”But, how do you owe Li Nian money?”

Although Li Nian had gone a bit overboard today, there was no need to doubt the money that Lu Jinfeng and the Madam Lee owed him.

”When dad was still alive, I had a serious illness. Second Aunt sent two chickens and half a bag of rice over.” Lu Jinfeng said expressionlessly.

Chen Mu could feel the tension in his veins. It was apparent that he was extremely agitated in his heart. However, if it was her, she wouldn't be able to remain calm either.

”That won't happen. Do you guys owe him money?” Chen Mu Mu Mu was at a loss whether to laugh or cry, ”If I'm not wrong, when your father was still alive, wasn't Li Nian's family's relationship with your father good?”

She had heard Lu Jinfeng mention it before. His father, Lu Dayi, had studied for a few years when he was young, and even became an Elementary Scholar. He was once the pride of the entire Xingyu Village.

But after that, Lu Dayi got sick, and his appearance became extremely scary. Everyone in the village said that they were infected by Lu Jinfeng. Afterwards, Old Madam Lu was afraid of death and wanted to chase Lu Jinfeng and Madam Lee out. Lu Dayi doted on her wife and son and followed his over, causing Old Madam Lu to never see his son again. When Lu Dayi died, Old Madam Lu started to dislike him even more.

However, Lu Jinfeng's disease was not an infection, the Village Chief and the doctor that Lu Dayi invited had guaranteed before that the doctor's reputation in the village would be good, but everyone would rather believe that it was not, and the villagers kept their distance from Lu Jinfeng's family.

Li Nian thought that he only stopped seeing Lu Jinfeng's family after he left.

Humans were always warm, and the world was always cold. It was understandable. However, the gifts that they had sent before had to be counted as money. That was it.

”My father agreed to convert it into money for him.” When Lu Jinfeng mentioned Lu Dayi, a faint light flashed past his eyes, ”My father is a man who needs backbone, at that time, even if Li Nian was very sick, he would still throw the stone and say that he will pay even if he sold everything he had, and tell him to scram.”

Pausing for a moment, he lowered his eyes slightly. ”But, until my father died, until a while ago, he was unable to return the money to them.”

The corners of Chen Mu Mu's mouth twitched, ”Then you guys are really poor.” Those tens of copper coins, after all these years, they still hadn't been able to repay him. However, poverty was not something human beings could control. Furthermore, there were three sick people in the family, Lu Dayi and Lu Jinfeng, one sick, one young, definitely could not earn money. Even if Madam Lee could go out and help people make some money, it would not be enough to make money for the family.

Being ill was like a landslide, she understood the principle of losing all her wealth. She didn't know how to comfort him, she could only say, ”That's all in the past. Your poison … no, your illness is already completely cured. Your days are going to be better. Things are still in the past.”

”Yes, it was done by man.” Lu Jinfeng nodded and looked at her. Starlight gathered in his eyes and formed a galaxy, beautiful and resplendent.

This kid, he's already so monstrous at such a young age, isn't he trying to attract bees and butterflies when he grows up?

Chen Mu Mu silently ridiculed, he didn't dare meet Qin Wentian's gaze.

Lu Jinfeng's eyes were truly enchanting, causing others to want to indulge in his eyes. She definitely could not be seduced.

”Poisoned?” The expression in the eyes of the Madam Lee who had been quietly listening to Chen Mu and Lu Jinfeng's quarreling changed as she asked, ”What are you guys talking about?”

”I said the wrong thing. I didn't study much and thought that poisoning and illness had the same meaning, so I was confused.” For some reason, Chen Mu Mu didn't want to speak the truth.

Madam Lee didn't seem to be too interested in this topic, it was as if she had casually asked and returned to silence.

Chen Mu Mu Mu secretly observed her and discovered that her body was trembling slightly, as though she was filled with fear and panic.

Madam Lee is … What are you afraid of?
